Sheinside Haul

One of the things I love to do when I'm home and bored is online shopping, and even though patience is hard to maintain I renew my excitement about my purchases once I hear the post man ring the bell.

I've shopped at Sheinside numerous times before and I always love what I get. If you have never ordered anything from there just read the comments to get to know what you're about to pay for and look closely to the item's description and measurements, I normally go a size up or even two if it's available.

As if I didn't need any more black dresses, I still had to order this one. It's simplicity makes it a perfect canvas to style it in so many different ways, one thing I loved about it were the sleeves, giving it a little edge to the dress without looking overwhelming.

And of course if I was already ordering black dresses with fun sleeves, I found basically the same thing but with 3/4 sleeves and side cuts, I think this would make it perfect for a more autumnal season, which is around the corner.

To be honest, I had seen this top (as a dupe for the Alexander Wang jersey) around tumblr so much that I started to want it uncontrollably, I'm not even sure when I will wear it but it's definitely one of those pieces I just love to have. It's kind of a crop top so I thought it would be best to wear it with high waisted shorts.

Red is one of those colors that I actually like how they look on me but for some strange reason I hardly wear it. I loved this blouse for the detail on the sleeves, I think it creates a really nice flowy feel when I move.

By now you should have realized that I love really basic pieces that have just a little statement, the thing with this blouse was the very large v-neck that makes a cleavage so subtle and so intense at the same time. The sleeves are quite flowy and loose as well, it's a little sheer so I'll probably wear it with something underneath.

Because anything with a floral print is just impossible to avoid, specially when it's black and with 3/4 sleeves - basically my type of thing. Something I like is how I can easily avoid accessorizing because all the attention goes to the top.

This was just a random order because I don't have much green in my wardrobe (specially such a perfect petroleum green) and just a basic blouse seemed like a good start, it has long sleeves but you can always pull them up into 3/4. Pardon my buttons, I didn't realize they were not fastened! :O

Yet another basic 3/4 sleeve basic blouse, but with this one I must say I ended a little disappointed with my purchase. First off, the color looks extremely different to what the site shows, it's supposed to be apricot and it turned out like hot pink. I know this is something you should expect to happen with online shopping, however, I also felt like the shape was kind of weird, as if it was a little too squared probably. Overall, it's a decent basic blouse for something I could wear with a black fake leather jacket on top when the weather gets colder.

The last thing I got were these super cute floral print shorts. As I said before, I cannot resist these prints and after having a wardrobe full of basic shirts and blouses I can get away with spicing up my looks with a statement piece on the bottom. I wore it here with a random old shirt from Bershka (and with 3/4 sleeves! surprise, surprise!).
